I would like to add UNC functionality (or something similar) to my systems and also update some documentation I am working on regarding programming concepts. I do not know enough about UNC and would like some peoples views. At the moment, I use two different approaches; in 2.6, I do the following at the start of the main program:-
lcCustRoot=lcMainDrive+":\customer\"
lcCustPath=lcCustRoot+lcCustCode+'\'     && lcCustCode = customer code
lcCustFile=lcCustPath+lcCustCode+".dbf"  && customer database
In VFP I do similar but place items in a text (ini) file and use low level file handling to pick out the bits I need. Example: "CustomerRoot=:\customer\". I would like to know what other people do and how flexible those different approaches are. TIA,
